We were close people!?!?!?!

Some of you may remember the post about Slate's Oscar contest a week or so ago. Anyway, Slate finally posted the answers. We were 3 names off. Here's a link to the updated Slate Oscar Contest page:
http://www.slate.com/id/2138338/

Here are the answers with our 3 incorrect guesses in parentheses:

1. George Clooney
2. Christopher Walken
3. Catherine Zeta-Jones
4. Jack Lemmon
5. Joaquin Phoenix
6. Morgan Freeman
7. Vivien Leigh (Joan Crawford -- the color photo should have eliminated Crawford)
8. Ang Lee
9. Katharine Hepburn
10. Woody Allen
11. Meryl Streep
12. Russell Crowe
13. Renée Zellweger
14. Cary Grant
15. Reese Witherspoon
16. Bette Davis (Liz Taylor -- I still think this is Liz, lol)
17. Frank Sinatra (Henry Fonda -- I think someone mentioned Sinatra)
18. Hilary Swank
19. Diane Keaton
20. Marlon Brando

Anyway, 17 out of 20 ain't too shabby. Way to go blog buds!

LOL. She did call it too.

Um, yuck. We were so close. Damn those old dead people. (j/k folks)

Thanks for posting the results. I was planning on stalking you in order to find them out and you don't want that. It can get unpleasant.
